Kayak  |  September 2016
People from many different countries came to Canada to build a life, starting more than 400 years ago. When they arrived, of course, there were many hundreds of thousands of First Nations and Inuit people already living here. From the 1600s on, people came mostly from Europe, spreading across the land that would become Canada. These settler families built farms, homes and towns. Often, new settlements had more women than men, so twice in our history, ships full of women were sent over to provide wives. Sometimes the move to Canada was happy, but sometimes it wasn’t—the same is true for the English orphans sent to New Brunswick in 1835 to help as farm workers and servants. Was their life better or worse? And what did all these people flooding in mean for First Nations and Inuit? There’s lots to learn and lots to think about in the September 2016 issue of Kayak!
